# getTokenSupply

> Returns the total supply of an SPL Token type.

Returns the total supply of an SPL Token type.

## On ThorNode

Answered by FastGate through the ThorEdge RPC URL; no separate endpoint or key. `commitment` and `minContextSlot` are accepted and ignored: the response reflects FastGate's indexed slot, reported as `context.slot` (no `apiVersion`). The request times out after 30 s. A non-mint returns `-32602 Invalid param: not a Token mint`.

## Parameters

<ParamField body="address" type="string" required>
  Solana token mint address to retrieve supply metrics for (SPL token's unique identifier).
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="commitment" type="string">
  The commitment level for the request. Accepted and ignored by FastGate.
